Can we talk about this scene (again) for a bit? I know a lot has been said about this already, but I just finished the series and I want to throw this in with the feels and I really need to get it out. Ok, so in this scene, Arthur’s supposedly dead already, and Merlin just kept on crying and screaming, “Arthur! Arthur!” hoping Arthur would wake up, hoping that this isn’t the end.  Then Arthur opens his eyes, and Merlin HOPES. Hopes that they would still make it, thought they COULD make it, to save Arthur, his best friend, his king, his lover (if you don’t merthur feel free to skip this), his DESTINY. Arthur wasn’t dead, and Merlin whispers a relieved “Arthur”. Merlin begs, “stay with me”,  and Merlin dares to SMILE, a smile full of hope and desperation. “I’d always thought you were the bravest man I’d ever met”, Arthur had said. Losing all hope but STILL daring to hope is one of the bravest things anyone can do. But at that moment, with Merlin’s smile still in place, Arthur closes his eyes and properly dies. And it hurts so much because we have Merlin, who was at the brink of losing all hope but dared to hope again only to lose it, and we have Arthur, who I liked to think heard Merlin and opened his eyes, wanting to soothe Merlin, wanting a smiling Merlin to be the last thing he sees, not wanting to leave his other half but not being able to stay.

Wandering through cities, learning languages of places far away, studying the effects of time and always, always coming back. Even if it took miles and miles of travelling, he always came back to protect and guide the kings and queens born in the only land he called home.No one knew his name nor noticed his presence in the palace and Merlin was known only to a few in the royal household as the tutor. But that was before the hundreds of wars, before diseases taking lives and having to say goodbye to many familiar faces. However, not all hope was lost; for as the years passed by, there came one prince, one royal wedding and one announcement. And the waiting was over.In a land called home and a time of prosperity; a young prince was born. His name; Arthur

A reincarnation AU ; suggested and inspired by simplysere

For hundreds, thousands of years Merlin waited. Wandering through cities, learning languages of places far away, studying the effects of time and always, always coming back. Even if it took miles and miles of travelling, he always came back to protect and guide the kings and queens born in the only land he called home.

No one knew his name nor noticed his presence in the palace and Merlin was known only to a few in the royal household as the tutor. But that was before the hundreds of wars, before diseases taking lives and having to say goodbye to many familiar faces. However, not all hope was lost; for as the years passed by, there came one prince, one royal wedding and one announcement. And the waiting was over.

In a land called home and a time of prosperity; a young prince was born. His name; Arthur
